Our Crystals of Irm game hub collects the essentials; here is everything confirmed so far.
What is Crystals of Irm?
Crystals of Irm is an old-school role-playing game with dungeon-crawling elements. Players lead a party of three heroes through the land of Irm, travelling its regions and descending into dungeons in search of missing crystals.
Release date and platforms
Deck13 Spotlight and developer David Schütze announced on 10 November 2026 that Crystals of Irm will be released on 21 January 2027 for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. That date comes from the official announcement; the developer’s official game page still showed the release as TBA when checked on 10 November 2026, and no Xbox Store listing or product ID had been published, so the platforms and date have not been confirmed by the store.
Is it on Game Pass?
No Xbox Store listing was available to check, the official announcement does not mention Game Pass, and no day-one subscription release has been announced.
Gameplay
Exploration takes in an overworld of cities, quarries, mines and farms, where the party can talk to inhabitants, help with their problems, or take time out to fish. Dungeons are crawled in first person, with loot, spells and battles along the way. Combat uses movement-based grid battles: fast-paced encounters in which positioning, abilities and spells determine the outcome. The three heroes can be equipped with skills, spells and stronger gear as they progress.
Editions
No Xbox editions, price or PEGI rating have been listed, because there is not yet an Xbox Store page for the game.
Who is making it?
It is developed by David Schütze and published by Deck13 Spotlight.
